The correct answer is manifest destiny.

Manifest destiny is the belief that it was America's god given right to expand from "sea to shining sea." In other words, it was America's destiny to expand their control across the entire North American continent from the Atlantic to the Pacific Ocean. This belief resulted in the US buying land from other countries, fighting in wars, and taking land from Native Americans in order to achieve this goal. This was present throughout American society during the early to middle of the 19th century.

D is also very unlikely because the gold-seekers were anything but organized workers; they were seeking fortune for themselves and nobody else.

Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

The border states, which had not seceded, but separated the United States from the Confederate States, were of great importance to the Northern war strategy. In order to win the war, the Union Army would need to pass through the border states to invade the South.
